Disney Princess Reviews

If you bought this toy in 2004 and RUSHED out to get the extra dolls, you are generally happy with it, as you will see in the reviews below. But if you bought it post 2005, when the extra dolls were no longer available (although the ballet studio is still in stores) you'll have either 1) have a very lonely Cinderlla twilling around the floor, or 2) a very angry Mommy or Daddy who need to shell out (...)these now "rare" "collectors item.

My 2 year old daughter was so excited when she received this gift for Christmas. She also received the JoJo's Circus Magic Circus Friends Pack. I was lucky she did, because the characters have magnets in their feet and some of them (Dinky and Goliath) work pretty well with the Ballet Studio. (...)

LOVE this toy...but want more dolls to go with it....could the reviewer who mentioned the "magnetic" My Little Pony toys PLEASE email me (dhoosierswife@yahoo.com) and/or let me know on here the specifics on *WHICH* MLP toys feature magnetic hooves?? Thanks!!

I bought this doll for my 3 year old and she loves it, she can not put the doll down. The color chnge works, just remeber to put the ice in the water.

We bought this doll primarily cause our baby's name is Jasmine and we wanted to save it for her for when she's older. Our 3 1/2 yr old daughter had other ideas! She has all 5 of the original (not color changing) toddler princess dolls, and wanted to play with this one too!! The little slippers were history relatively quick, but it's held up great, I agree with the 1st review regarding the color changes, you have to follow the instructions, and then it works fine. Her hair is gorgeous, and although matts up some after heavy play, all ya gotta do it wet it, and brush it, and it's fine. At least that's what I do! I think I have as much fun with their hair as my daughter's picking out the "Hairstyle" for their dolly! My 15m old now has to really learn how to steal it back from her sis!! Both girl's love the princess dolls and 3 1/2 yr old is now getting into having "tea parties" with them!! Even for collecting for a shelf, they are beautiful and durable dolls. When they're not playing with them, I put them up on a shelf in the girl's room, and they look awesome.

I have just recently purchased Little Jasmine. I must say that like Little Pocahontas, Jasmine is beautiful!! Her eyes are a pretty shade of brown, her hair is ebony and done in a pretty long ponytail with multiple rubber bands to keep the hair in place. Her outfit is the traditional Jasmine outfit that is glittery and a pretty shade of lilac. Jasmine comes with Raja, which is just too cute! There are plently of accesories for Jasmine and they are nice as well. The hair clips were a little tricky at first to put on, but once I just "opened" the clip everything stayed on fine. Jasmine has a headband that I don't recommend attempting to take off, but that is just me. Your child will still be able to comb and style Jasmine's hair with the headband on. Jasmine's hair is easy to comb and smooth. It hasn't knotted up, even after a rough "slumber party" with a three yr old!! Her color change effects are great too. I know some people have complained that the color doesn't last long enough, and that it is hard to get the color to change without using ice cubes. I have found this to be just the opposite for me. I read the instructions which say,
"PARENTS: PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING NOTICE TO INSURE OPTIMUM PERFORMANCE OF THE MAGICAL COLOR CHANGE FEATURE ON YOUR NEW "LITTLE PRINCESS" DOLL.
"IF THE COLOR CHANGE HIGHLIGHTS APPEAR ON YOUR "LITTLE PRINCESS" DOLL WHEN YOU REMOVE THE DOLL FROM THE PACKAGE, PLEASE PLACE YOUR FINGER OR A WARM, WET TOWEL ON THESE HIGHLIGHTS. lEAVE YOUR FINGER OR THE WARM TOWEL IN PLACE UNTIL THE COLOR CHANGE HIGHLIGHTS DISAPPEAR BEFORE GIVING THE DOLL TO YOUR CHILD. TO REVEAL THE COLOR CHANGE HIGHLIGHTS, SIMPLY FOLLOW THE INSTRUCTIONS DETAILED ON THE ENCLOSED INSTRUCTION SHEET."
I think many parents must be over looking this step. I find the wet towel to work the best and haven't had any problems with the color changes. I live a very hot state, and the color lasts a reasonably long time. I don't expect it to last all day, or even for hours at a time. I think that is what makes the the doll extra fun, changing her color highlights over and over!! All in all Jasmine is well made, beautiful, and inspires your child to use her imagination. For this reason alone I think Jasmine is 5 stars all the way! I also suggest getting Little Pocahontas who is equally beautiful and durable!
I hope this review has helped you!
